1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

STEAP1 gene is overexpressed in several kinds of tumors, particularly in prostate cancer. Besides STEAP1, there is another related gene, STEAP1B, which may encode two different transcripts. Although several studies have been pointing STEAP1 as a putative immunotherapeutic target and biomarker, the mechanisms underlying its regulation are not fully understood. In silico analysis allowed us to show that STEAP1 and STEAP1B share high homology, but with slight differences at structural level. Experiments with prostate cells showed that STEAP1B2 is overexpressed in cancer cells. Regarding STEAP1 regulation, it is demonstrated that the stability of mRNA and protein is higher in LNCaP than in PNT1A cells. Of note, serum triggered opposite effects in LNCaP and PNT1A in relation to STEAP1 stability, e.g., increasing it in PNT1A and decreasing in LNCaP. These results suggest that STEAP1 may be regulated by post-transcriptional and post-translational modifications (PTM), which may differ between non-neoplastic and neoplastic cells. These PTM are supported through in silico analysis, where several modifications such as N-glycosylation, N-Glycation, Phosphorylation and O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine, may occur in STEAP1 protein. In conclusion, these data indicate that STEAP1B2 is overexpressed in neoplastic cells, and PTM may be involved in regulation of STEAP1 expression in prostate cells.
